CGA Members featured in The Cut Magazine

“Some domestic workers — like Sandra, Pamela, and Josie — belong to organizing networks aimed at helping those who cook, clean, and nanny for legions of households. All three belong to the Carroll Gardens Association, which organizes tenants and care workers in southwest Brooklyn; Sandra is also an activist with the National Domestic Workers Alliance. The Cut spoke to them about their bosses, their financial struggles, and the importance of their work.”

“For food, I Google and see where there is a food pantry. Sometimes you have to stand in a long line. Sometimes you want to give up because you’re standing for so long. The work we do is important because we take care of the families. We clean places, we take care of children, make sure families can go to work while we’re at home taking care of the kids. We help them make money while they in turn help us. We cannot do without each other.”
